Re: OT: MLB Thread

All the faux Jays fans have disappeared from public view, nobody talking about them around the water cooler, and only the occasional hat to be seen, I'm assuming from a real fan.

Thanks Atkins.

Happens everywhere, there are a hand full of American teams that would trade their position with the Jays anytime. I watched a Cincinnati home game the other day...my God there couldn't have been more than 200 people left in the park. It was extra innings...but still...

Hey, I don't care if Torontonians follow the jays and fill the ballpark.

It when the rest of Canada suddenly become rabid jays fans out of nowhere and suddenly I'm not supporting "Canada's" team when they are making the playoffs.

My friends, coworkers, friend of my wife, playdates with my daughter, if hockey was talked about I would say I was a habs fan. And when leaf fans tried to talk about how much better the leafs were than the habs I would thank them for helping to bring us closer to winning the lottery. When sens fans said that the habs sucked I said I hoped that they win all the remaining games versus us so that we could pass them in the race to the bottom.

I still work my habs gear arund town, seeing as how blue and red goes with more clothing than gold.

I didn't shy way from the habs sucking, I embraced it.

My point was that seeing less Blue Jay fans makes sense cause they're shitty. Not that everyone is a bandwagon fan... just that people are not as vocal out in public about their team when they're sucking.

I where Habs gear a fair bit even when they suck, but it's more likely to happen more when they are winning.

I fully realize why I see less jays fans and gear. I already thanked Atkins for helping me out in that regard.

I'm just happy that its happening. It was a rough two years of suddenly everyone being a bautista fan.
